What type of content do you use, purchased, sponsor, exclusive or combination?

to tell you the truth, i've bought content many times that programs give away for free. unlike some webmasters, i don't really care who does or doesn't pay for content as long as it makes me money.

but consider this - if the affiliate program paid more for the use for affiliates, the affiliates may be getting it for free but your other clients will be aware that the program paid for a separate license, so it wasn't free as extra money was paid.

one other option is to have some cotent that is only available for programs who want to use it for affiliate content.

And we don't have any older content ... all of the content on the site has been put up within the last 6 months, but doing this would still compromise the webmaster's investment unless the content is very very old.

Let me ask you basschick, at what point would you be ok with seeing content you paid for being given away for free, I mean, how old would it have to be?
